The 2008 Honda CBR1000RR is lighter and more powerful than ever before, but is it better? To find out, we take it to Palomar Mountain, home to roads so winding that power alone can’t conquer them.

    Nice feature. My downstairs neighbor has the ’06 CBR1000RR and that is a great bike to ride. I would love to try out the ’08 version.

    Thanks. You really should try it. I was not a fan of the ’06 at all, but this ’08 is the best liter-bike yet.

    I just moved from Carlsbad, CA to L.A. and while living there I never made it to Palomar. Thanks for making me regret that even more.

    Great article.

    I used to work as a Paramedic on an ambulance that covered that area. On my first day the EMT I worked with drove me around, and despite his having only been there for three years, he still pointed to almost every turn and said “Worked a motorcycle accident there… motorcycle fatality there… etc…” and yet, everytime I drove the rig to or from a call, I wished I had been on two fewer wheels.
